The Born Loser by Art & Chip Sansom Brutus: What are you working on? Gladys: A new strawberry pie recipe... Brutus: Wait! Is that rhubarb you're adding to the pie filling? Gladys: That's right - it's a strawberry-rhubarb pie. Brutus: Why on earth would you ruin a perfectly good strawberry pie by adding rhubarb to it? Gladys: It serves the important purpose of balancing the flavors - it cuts the overly sweet strawberries. Brutus: Well, okay...I guess that makes sense. What goes in next? Gladys: Sugar.

Gladys is right. My only problem is I can’t grow rhubarb in South Texas like I used to do in Iowa.

I love rhubarb pie. Home grown rhubarb, and homemade pie. Delicious!

I’ve never understood why you would make pie with strawberry or rhubarb when you could make wine instead. But, I’ve always thought rhubarb would be a good ice cream flavor.

Cherry Rhubarb pie is really good! Years ago, my (late) husband ordered me this pie thinking it was one I liked. He got the idea it was cherry instead of strawberry. Turned out to be one of the best pies I’ve ever had! He even liked it and he was picky! Sure miss him!

In Livingston in Scotland huge rhubarbs have got loose and grow along the sloping banks of the river. They look very prehistoric.
